00:34
easy staple
00:35
it's so figure flattering it's easy to

00:39
me in those months
00:40
just an easy one and done outfit i love
00:43
them
00:44
um so i've tried them all on i got into
00:46
i actually can i tell a share story with
00:48
you real quick
00:49
so one of the reasons i'm so excited to
00:51
do this today
00:52
is last weekend i purged my closet i do
00:54
this at the end of every season
00:56
religiously i love to do
00:58
it i i love to let things go um that i
01:01
have not worn
01:02
um i love to have an easy view of what's
01:04
in my closet that brings me joy
01:06
um but one of the really funny things is
01:09
once i purged
01:10
i was looking at my spring assortment
01:12
like what i was starting the season with
01:14
and i'm gonna be honest i work in this
01:16
industry
01:16
and it was sad like it's a really sad
01:19
little story and then i
01:20
i thought about it i thought well of
01:22
course it's sad last year
01:24
i wasn't adding to my spring closet i
01:26
was just like you
01:28
i was thinking about toilet paper and
01:30
meat and how to get through the week and
01:31
so
01:32
um i just feel like it's such a gift uh
01:34
this spring
01:35
uh to just be adding to the spring
01:37
wardrobe and thinking about
01:39
what do i want in my closet this spring
01:41
um so i've been trying on and i want to
01:43
show you
01:44
three of my favorite dresses and i
01:46
really want to talk about how you can
01:47
get the most wear out of dresses
01:49
how you going to wear it for a day look
01:50
but how are you also going to take it
01:51
out to dinner
01:52
okay let's get started so this is dress
01:55
number one
01:56
this is our malibu midi and it's by
01:59
sundry
02:00
if you're not familiar with sundry they
02:01
have very easy sizing zero one two three
02:04
i'm in a size two
02:05
true to size uh this color it might show
02:08
up black but if you can see it against
02:09
the patent leather of this bag
02:11
it's actually a deep gray which is kind
02:14
of a
02:14
it's a fun neutral and this is
02:18
tiered so it's a little bit of a tear
02:20
under your bust and it tears all the way
02:22
down
02:23
again i'm 5'7 it hits me about mid-calf
02:27
this is super bra friendly i've just
02:29
layered a tank for a fashion standpoint
02:31
i like the layering of it i think it
02:33
it makes it look more casual for a day
02:35
look so layered underneath this sundry
02:37
dress
02:38
is our michael stars boat neck another
02:40
great essential
02:42
white and black tanks i mean we wear
02:44
them like crazy through the spring and
02:45
summer we wash them like crazy and just
02:47
have to update them every year
02:49
so this is a great 68 option
02:52
by again by michael stars so i've just
02:54
layered that under my dress
02:56
i've thrown on kind of thinking i might
02:58
be out in spring it's still a little
03:00
chilly
03:01
this is our julia cut jean jacket she's
03:04
got a raw hem
03:05
on the edge so it it's a little bit
03:07
cropped which is really great to wear
03:09
over a dress doesn't look too
03:10
oversized not a lot of deconstruction
03:13
here it's a nice
03:14
clean medium wash would go with a lot of
03:17
different things
03:18
for shoes what are we going to wear with
03:21
our midi dresses
03:22
this spring and summer wear a platform
03:25
sandal so i've pulled out our sorel
03:29
and let me show you this up close and
03:31
personal so this is the cameron
03:34
if you're shopping this is the cameron
03:36
platform sandal
03:37
it's actually really pretty hopefully
03:39
you can see this in video
03:40
this is kind of a jute uh fabric and so
03:43
it's that natural jute color with the
03:45
black
03:46
and a chevron it's got a great little i
03:48
don't want to mess with taking them off
03:50
my feet
03:50
but it is very easy it's got a little
03:52
velcro
03:53
to it and sorel for me i love in spring
03:57
and summer because it's just a perfect
03:58
marriage of fashion
04:00
but also function they're so comfortable
04:02
i could go out and about shopping
04:04
wear these all day but what i love is
04:07
this would be an easy transition at
04:09
night to dinner so
04:10
super easy day look i would probably i
04:14
might lose
04:14
the little tank to make this look a
04:17
little bit dressy for the evening
04:18
i might put on a third layer for my
04:20
necklace but my shoes
04:22
i would really keep my shoes i would do
04:24
this into dinner okay so that's dress
04:26
number one by sundry let me show you
04:28
look number two
04:30
okay look number two and admittedly my
04:33
favorite
04:34
if this look does not make you want to
04:36
pack
04:37
and book for a vacation i don't know
04:40
what will
04:41
many of these pieces are coming home
04:42
with me today okay so let's start with
04:45
the dress
04:45
this dress is by peyton jensen that's
04:48
our in-house brand
04:49
um so fun kind of this icat
04:52
meets tie dye it's these beautiful
04:56
neutrals kind of a camel a black a gray
04:59
a cream
05:01
all of my faves i am a big fan of
05:03
neutrals
05:04
it is a maxi length i just chose to knot
05:08
it give it a little bit of excitement at
05:10
the bottom
05:11
i'm showing you out to dinner i started
05:14
a little fancier first
05:15
because i like all the accessories this
05:18
is actually a short sleeve
05:20
long t-shirt dress and i will show you
05:22
that in a minute but i just wanted you
05:24
to see it all layered up so
05:26
if i were going out to dinner in this um
05:28
i would add all the accessories so i
05:30
kept on my dylan pendant necklace
05:32
i added this lola ring have you bought
05:34
the lola i love her
05:35
she is silver and gold so she's going to
05:37
mix with everything you have
05:39
square design with kind of rounded
05:42
corners
05:43
and just a real statement piece for a
05:45
nice little cocktail ring
05:47
i can't remember the names of all of
05:48
these but these are all just
05:50
individual gold bangles that i layered
05:52
on for fun
05:54
this i think sometimes for me what i
05:56
like to do over a maxi dress is instead
05:58
of doing that typical jean jacket
06:00
if i don't need the weight if it's not
06:03
that that cold out
06:04
i like to just do a little chambray
06:06
shirt so this is a new one by rails
06:09
rails is hands down my favorite it's a
06:12
little bit of a splurge but these button
06:13
downs will be in your wardrobe forever
06:16
i bought the wash pink you'll see that
06:18
on lineup too i
06:19
came in wearing that today it is my
06:21
absolute favorite so this is the ingrid
06:24
um just a really really light washed out
06:26
chambray fits true to size i'm in a
06:28
large
06:29
i just rolled up the sleeves did a
06:31
little bit of a front tie here i kind of
06:33
wear it nice and open
06:35
and then from a wardrobing standpoint to
06:37
your body type again if you are a curvy
06:39
gal
06:40
doing that little nip here right above
06:42
your waist kind of creating a waistline
06:45
letting your curve shine through
06:47
this has pockets so i just think that's
06:49
really fun as well
06:51
for a shoe again i'm thinking dinner so
06:53
i went with our schutz
06:55
it's the victoria and an out to dinner
06:58
sandal you really want to do something
07:00
this year with cork
07:02
and lucite so the cork is really fun
07:04
yells spring and summer
07:05
the lucite is where your your leg just
07:08
kind of disappears
07:09
um and it's all one fluid line which is
07:12
really great for that nice long lean
07:15
here i'll stand back a little bit more
07:17
and then this is the sutton
07:19
i'm a hat girl if you are not a hat girl
07:21
i'm going to try to convince you to be a
07:23
hat girl today
07:24
i love a hat if you're not having a
07:26
great hair day
07:27
hot if you just want to have a little
07:30
attitude
07:31
hat so this is the set and it's called
07:33
the sutton packable and i see why
07:34
because you could absolutely throw this
07:36
in your suitcase
07:37
she is going to live well she's going to
07:40
look awesome with a little swimsuit
07:42
cover-up and wearing your bathing suit
07:43
somewhere
07:44
on a beach that's my hope at some point
07:46
this summer so let me take this off
07:48
though because you need to see the
07:49
t-shirt dress so
07:50
let's take this down a notch let's take
07:52
it back today
07:53
today she's a t-shirt i wouldn't do
07:55
anything honestly
07:57
i wouldn't layer it
08:00
i would just leave this open here i want
08:03
to show you on the t-shirt it's got a
08:05
little bit
08:05
of a cuff to it here again i'm a hat
08:08
girl so i would keep on
08:11
i would keep on my little hat but i'm
08:13
gonna go freedom moses
08:14
freedom moses sandals throw those on
08:18
again we have them in this kind of a
08:20
paint splatter
08:22
we also have them in a silver these are
08:24
super fun
08:25
and then if you just if you really are
08:27
prefer
08:28
flats i also think this dolce vita um
08:31
this little isabel
08:32

09:09
over the knee it's going to hit about
09:10
two inches over the knee it's got a
09:12
little drawstring
09:13
here so you can kind of adjust how long
09:16
you know if you want that skirt to be a
09:17
little shorter you just adjust and make
09:19
that a little bit shorter
09:20
but it's so comfortable it's t-shirt
09:22
material
09:23
and it is called the weekender for a
09:25
reason um
09:27
i'm at the ballpark i'm at the ballpark
09:28
all summer long
09:30
and so i i hate shorts i'm hot
09:33

09:39
perfect
09:40
um this year i'm going to update to this
